A fantastic send-up of loner cop action hero movies, with a final half hour that makes it the funniest thing I’ve seen this year.
spicy Fuzzis the funniest flick that most people have n’t seen this twelvemonth . Sure , everyone is fawning overSuperbad , which was OK , but if you ’re an action flick fan , especially of stuff along the line ofDie HardorLethal Weaponyou really need to see this movie .
Hot Fuzzwas made by the same kinfolk who depict us that zombies could be funny inShaun of the Dead . It stars Simon Pegg ( who co - publish the script ) and Nick Frost . They were the same on - screen squad inShaun . Here Pegg plays officer Nicholas Angel , a by the al-Qur’an , excels - at - everything - he - does ship’s officer who is so good that he ’s making the rest of the London police military unit look spoilt in comparing ( his catch pace is 400 % higher than the next highest ) . Due to this , his superiors resolve to ship him off to the small village of Sandford , where the criminal offense charge per unit is ridiculously low and the citizen are proud of it ’s designation as Village of the Year .
Angel brings his bad , no - nonsense view of the law to the sleepyheaded little town , and the welcome he receives soon turn to annoyance and ridicule by the townsfolk . A series of murders are interpret to be stroke by the existing police force , with the two town detective continually accusing Angel of attempt to see a offense where none exists . He is teamed up with the police chief ’s Word Danny Butterman - a stout and overeager lad who fantasizes about the sort of police force action seen inPoint BreakandBad Boys II .
The first 3/4 of the motion-picture show is funny in a low - key , pernicious way . Much of the humour is derived by the counterpoint of the too serious performance of Pegg as Angel in the face of the be officers of Sandford who all play their persona for goofy laughs . Also , throw the diminuitive Pegg as a hard - boiled super - pig is funny in and of itself . But where the movie really breaks loose and gets it ’s legs is in the final 30 bit or so when it goes into full - on cop movie parody mode . There are more source to previous films here than I could reckon , but the vision of Nick Angel riding through town on hogback armed to the tooth was really mirthful , and his shoot - out with the local townspeople left me in stitch . :-)
One - time James Bond Timothy Dalton is also in the film and does a great job of portraying a oily man of affairs with the all the charm of a used car salesman .
Be warned that it ’s rat universal gas constant for a understanding , with a few reasonably grisly scenes and plentitude of foul speech that instead of seeming superfluous is actually used to great effect .
I ’m really shocked that this film did n’t do better here in the U.S. - perhaps masses just do n’t get the ( sometimes ) more subtle British humor and are more heart-to-heart to the more unmediated ( and crass ) humor in movies likeSuperbad . It ’s a shame more family line did n’t get out and see this one , but now that it ’s out on DVD Ihighlyrecommend you checker it out .
Go check it out and allow me experience what you consider of it !
